What is a team leader interaction?

A team leader interaction is a way for a team leader to engage with one or more team members by allowing the team leader to click a button on the team leader administration dashboard that then…

  • Applies a tag
  • Runs a custom operation

Examples of team leader interactions.

Team leader interactions can affect all team members at one time or they can be based on each specific team member making them very flexible for a variety of advanced use cases.

1. Unlock an Offering

This option is helpful if a team leader has purchased access to multiple offerings for their team members, but would like to choose when team members start each unique offering.

The front end view of the team leader interaction is shown below.

2. Award team members with points.

3. Have a team member “Graduate” from one grade or membership level to another

In teacher-student scenarios, a leader might want to control the release of course material for the team students, perhaps releasing consecutive grade materials by semester, or individually after the student submits the appropriate homework.

How to create this interaction

Step 1: Create the Custom Operations

Go to AccessAlly > Settings > Custom Operations > + New Operation

Using a custom operation allows you to add tags each grade/level and remove tags for grades/levels that are not being used by this team member.

You’ll create one custom operation for each grade or membership level.

Grade 9 Example Custom Operation

Step 2: Create the Team Leader Interaction

Go to AccessAlly > Teams > Programs > Open team dropdown > Interactions tab > Create New Interaction

When setting this interaction up the operation type can be set to interact with individual team member or interact with all team members.

Step 3: Add Interactions to the Team Leader Display

Verify that your team leader display is showing all team member interactions. You only need to add this one time no matter how many team interactions you create.

Go to AccessAlly > Teams > Programs > Open team dropdown > Display Tab

Once you have set up your team leader interactions they are be visible on your team leader administration page.

*Site admins that are not designated as a team leader are not able to see team leader interactions.
